10 Money Tips for Teens. If you have teenagers – or you remember being one – then you’ve probably noticed that managing money can be challenging, even long before adult responsibilities like mortgages enter the picture.

That’s because teens are usually faced with tight budget constraints and lots of wants, ranging from the latest sneakers to nights out with friends. Teens also have a hard time saving for some distant future that seems impossibly far away, so convincing them to set aside a portion of their spending money can be difficult. If you’d like to help instill strong financial habits in your teens now, and help them avoid the headaches of credit card debt and other problems later, then a handful of new books are here to help. Susan Beacham, founder of the financial education company Money Savvy Generation, co-wrote “O.M.G.: Official Money Guide for Teenagers” with her husband Michael Beacham.
Vakansie Oord. Can you pass matric mathematics literacy?
Mathematics literacy is an alternative to mathematics for learners in grades 10, 11 and 12, and provides a less-challenging option than its more traditional counterpart.

The purpose of mathematics literacy is to provide learners with an awareness and understanding of the role that mathematics plays in the modern world.

When the scourge of apartheid was finally smashed to pieces in 1994, the country seemed to have a bright future ahead of it. Eight years later, in 2002, 60 percent of South Africans said life had been better under apartheid. Hard to believe — but that’s how bad things were in 2002. And now they’re even worse. When apartheid ended, the life expectancy in South Africa was 64 — the same as in Turkey and Russia. Before the end of apartheid, South African writer Ilana Mercer moved, with her family, to Israel; her father was a vocal opponent of apartheid, and was being harassed by South African security forces. Of course, de facto one-party rule doesn’t promote integrity.

Unfortunately, things changed, you were given access to things that your friends liked and your friends friends decided to add you because you kept popping up in their suggestions box and before you knew it, you were up to your eyeballs in people you barely knew or people that would add you but totally ignore you if you passed them in the street. These are the dark days of Facebook. Gone are the kittens and puppies, they've been replaced by vomit inducing images of dogs being punched, roadkill, videos of children being punched on public transport, girls sucking on used tampons, kids stabbing their hands with knives, injuries, insults, masturbation and sexually suggestive selfies.
